I have known Joseph for 20 years, ever since we adopted him and his sister. It was important that we expose our children to animals of all kinds and sizes. We have Loved and owned Cats, Dogs, Fish, Guinea Pigs, Pet Rats and interacted with other Species when ever possible. Both kids went through YMCA Youth Camps, which also included specifically Horse Camp for years. Horse Camp educated youth to care for farm animals in addition to their own horse care and maintenance. We have had a number of Cats and Dogs. All have had long lives, between 15 and 20 years of age. Some were Pure Breeds, some were Rescues. Joe has gone thru the various stages of raising a Dog or Cat. From Kitten or Puppy to Senior Citizen and rambunctious in between. Joe has also been there with many of our animals and his during their final hours. Joe is a Wonderful Caregiver and is Caregiver to his Senior father/my husband. I/we Count on him without any reservations when I work Night Shift, to oversee my husband's care and well being when I am not there. Joe Loves animals, is in good health to properly exercise animals, has good general knowledge in Domestic Animal Care. This would be a new endeavor for Joe in this field and a great opportunity.
